I've found that with grief comes moodiness. Some days I'm more irritable than others. Some parts of the day I'm "ok" and at other moments I'm not. Not many people see those sides of my grief. Or if they do, I don't even realize it. Truth is, I don't know when the low moments will …
Time Doesn’t Stop For Anyone
Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints. (Psalm 116:15 ESV) When I knew my Daddy was definitely dying, (I believe he had coded 2 or 3 times by this point) as we all surrounded him in the hospital, I sang "Jesus Loves Me" and "Zippity Doo Dah" in his …
Quit Believing Lies
Let me just jump right on in and say: WE HAVE to QUIT believing the LIES that WE tell ourselves! Oh, you don't lie to yourself? Really? You just lied. "I'm NOT GOOD ENOUGH". "They'll think I'm stupid." "UNWORTHY" "I'm just a ..... (you fill in the blank.)" "There's already a book, blog, …
What Are You Filling The Voids With?
As promised, today I am sharing with you all the message that I shared with the girls last weekend at the "Girls Night Out" event. Of course, this will be more of a summary of the entire message. In fact, there will be two parts to this post, and I will post Part Two tomorrow. …
I Hear You God
I recently spoke at a "Girl's Night Out" event that was held at Redland Baptist. Not because I am a "speaker", but because of a youth director's obedience to God and because I knew that when she asked me to do this that it was definitely God wanting me to. Like I said, I am …
Knock Knock
During my morning Bible study/quiet time, I read and soaked on Revelation 3:20. Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with him, and he with me. ~ Revelation 3:20 Let me give you a little background on this …
New Year New Me
Look here, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we are going to a certain town and will stay there a year. We will do business there and make a profit.” How do you know what your life will be like tomorrow? Your life is like the morning fog—it’s here a little while, then it’s gone. …
YOU TALKING TO ME ?
Psalm 18:31,32 (NLT) ~ For who is God except the Lord? Who but our God is a solid rock? God arms me with strength, and he makes my way perfect. I have to be honest. Sometimes I really do find myself talking back to The Holy Spirit. When I feel there is something way …
Some Days are Hard
SHORT and SWEET SIMPLE TRUTHS Some days ARE harder than others. Harder to choose joy. Harder to be patient. Harder to believe that things will get better. ROMANS 12:12 ~ Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. I don't know about you, but on those days, I'm even more heaven ready. …
Don’t Be A Blessing Robber
There are times when we least expect it that GOD reaches out and loves on us. We don't deserve it, none of us do, but HE freely gives us HIS LOVE. I don't know why it still shocks me sometimes... My FATHER GOD, HE loves me! So much that HE speaks to me in …
